Washington Trip - The Ocean - Jesse the Graduate!

So it's been a while since I've gotten a post and it's because we've been in a whirlwind of fun things! We go to go on a short but sweet vacation to Washington to celebrate Jesse graduating High School! Yeah! It's so nice to have that over! It's amazing to me that I'm coming up on my 10 years this year and it seemed like I'd just done it! We flew up with Lynsie and Luke on Wednesday and were so excited to spend a few days before the actual graduation! We got started on the first season of 'Lost' and now are becoming addicts like many I know :) Anthon and Jesse got out on the dirt bikes almost immediately after we got there! No suprise but they had a blast! Baylee was in heaven from the beginning seeing Mimi and Grandpa Arlo and was so excited to see Dukati (her dog as she still is adament about!)She loved the hot tub ... so did Boston and Lukey! Bay has now decided we need one here. Jesse and his cute friend Sarah came over for a while on Thursday and Baylee made friends instantly! Sarah is a cute friend! Then Friday Jesse's cute girlfriend Corrine came over with their new kitty and Baylee made another instant friend! She loves her uncle Jess so anyone that's a friend of his is a friend to her! It was fun to watch her! Nicoley got in on Friday and we all went out to the beach. She came with her cute friend Whitney and her little boy Tyler ... he's the cutest! It was the kids first time seeing the ocean, and even though it was really cold, they loved every minute! Boston was crawling all over the beach and Baylee played soccer and ran up and down the beach with the dogs! Tone and Dad built a roaring fire where we cooked up some hot dogs and smores (yum!) and Jesse and his cute girlfriend Corrine were crazy enough to take a swim in the freezing water! We had a great time! Saturday we got ready for graduation and it is held in a big barn ... they had a class of 137 and Jesse was the Class Speaker so it was really cool to hear him! He did awesome and said some great things! Our cute cousin Ali graduated too but from Monroe High so we didn't get to be there but they came to hang out after! We enjoyed getting everyone together that night and Baylee went with Dad and Grandpa Arlo on a 4wheeler ride ... she couldn't get enough! We had fun playing games and hanging out til about 2 am! We had to leave about 5:30 Sunday morning for the airport :( a little sleep deprived! We were so glad we could go up but as normal it went by too fast and we wish we could've stayed longer! Baylee is still reminding me that Mimi didn't want her to leave and we need to go back! Hopefully soon :) Here's some pictures from all the fun! Congrats again to the graduates!
